The cosmetics maker has fallen victim to global supply chain disruptions that pushed up raw material costs and prompted vendors to demand upfront payments.

A prompt resolution of the dispute would help its bankruptcy case move forward, it said in court papers. Mittleman Brothers Investment Management, which holds about 3% of the company’s stock, expressed hope equity holders would manage a decent payout despite the bankruptcy. It was sold in 1985 to MacAndrews & Forbes — which remains the controlling shareholder and is owned by Ron Perelman — and went public 11 years later. At the same time, vendors that traditionally offered up to 75 days for payment began demanding cash in advance of new orders, while labour shortages and inflation added to its troubles. In contrast, competitors such as CoverGirl, owned by Coty, have gained market share by investing heavily to improve supplies. In its bankruptcy filing, Revlon said supply chain disruptions prompted intense competition for ingredients used to make its products.
